Forget the ears. RIP Spine.
Having that wall of speakers was probably a really cool idea that I'd regret later in my touring career. Probably by the second show. If it was me, I'd try to get away with a Squier 15 amp with 18 microphones going to FOH. I'm lazy.

They are all hooked up. Her tone is actually great but that camera will never in a million years be able to accurately reproduce how it sounds and feels to be in front of that wall.
That's funny!
I would like to gig with that rig but rotate at least 7 or 8 different basses. Different songs require different tonal characteristics and the subtle differences are important to capture live.
I would guess after a few songs with that rig, subtle isn't going to be noticed.
Huh, I guess I'm the only one who digs the distorted camera mic over the actual recording.

What's this got to do with my band? You dragged The Beatles into this. Call me crazy but something tells me Jucifer won't still be selling 40 years from now.
i like the comment about how only one 10 was miked! that makes me actualy think about how great practice amps are because you can rehearse hearing exactly what the board is hearing! 110 combos are truly genius impo (personal opinion). but the wall is just avent gaurd art at this point in time and day. She doesn't need to be heard 3000' away like in the 60s using a wall.
Worst thing I have heard in a long time.
Please stop playing immediately- and donate EACH and every one of those cabinets to one needy band with talent each.
Also- sell some and pay that poor drummer compensation for having to deal with this.

So by 'talent' you mean derivative cookie cutter white boy blues in any bar USA? The groove has left that building. I would NOT have posted that as a response for your above comment.
But all of this is getting everyone nowhere. It's art. You don't like it, I don't like it, so what. Don't pick fights without proper ammunition.
.. other than the groove part I will take that as a compliment.
Listen to the original of that song, though, it kind of has a "choppy" feel to it... but if I can play it better I will- I admit I need to work on my bass solo(s) some, but I kind of like to do them off the cuff.

I tend to worry - but one thing that strikes me is all those poor speaker cones are unprotected. They must be very careful while handling the cabs.
Haha - here is an excerpt from an interview with Jucifer's guitar player:

Gazelle Amber Valentine: Thank you! It is pretty amazing to have reached that milestone. Looking back there are so many things… it’s a very long time and we’ve stayed busy enough and enthusiastic enough that almost every day has some kind of highlight. A proud moment can be anything from surviving a breakdown to getting through a difficult show, to writing one of your own favorite songs, to hearing someone else say your work has affected their life. That last one, that’s a really meaningful thing. Especially in context of the post internet bitch-about-everything world, when someone takes time out to say something positive about a band it’s a big deal.
TBR: So here we are in 2013 – the “post apocalypse”, as it were. Now that the Gregorian calendar has turned over, what is your sense about where we’re at and where things are headed for the human species?
Gazelle: As a history buff and a lifelong amateur sociologist, I don’t hold out a lot of hope for the future of humankind. At the same time, I’m aware that this pessimistic outlook has been present for centuries without us actually self-destructing. Haha. So, who knows? Speaking of the internet… the worst thing about it for me has been getting exposed to so many nasty, small-minded, bigoted, and just plain idiotic perceptions. Of course I’m not talking about the people I personally socialize with. But evil voices are inescapable, blaring at you anytime you check out a story or post online. It’s really a double edged sword, this new reality where everyone can voice their opinion for the world to see. One can discover great intellectual and ethical allies, but never without also discovering one’s nemeses. I think it has become more difficult to feel optimism about human beings now that their worst nature is so omnipresent.

I remember when they came to my town live, played the same stage I play most often. As much as I like them recorded, I avoided the show - good sludgy doom/stoner metal can be great, but I have to say I'm critical of how "over the top" they can always bring the amps. Different strokes though.
